Devil's Cub
Devil's cub: I just finished reading 'Devil's Cub' what an excellent book. Couldn't put the book down until I finished it. I just can't understand why they do not make movies or TV series out of her books. For me her books are as good as Jane Austen's. [... more]

The Convenient Marriage
A quick, enjoyable read: This was a quick, funny read--the secondary characters were quirky and often LOL-hilarious. I adore the hero, the Earl of Rule, and how he's perpetually slumberous, amiable, and oh-so-polite. The heroine was also a unique [... more]
